How to Update KYC for EPF UAN

The government has made it mandatory for employees to link their EPF account with Aadhaar and other documents. EPFO has made provisions for people to update their KYC details quite easily through the online portal. Updating your KYC details also helps in getting a range of benefits like easy operation of accounts, low TDS on withdrawals, etc.

Under the “Manage” section, click on the “KYC” option from the drop down list.

The KYC details updating form will open. You can fill a number of your details such as PAN, Aadhaar, passport, driving license, ration card, election card, National Population Register (NPR) and bank details.

Tick on the box in front of the document that you want to update. Enter the document number, your name as per the document and additional details such as IFSC in case of bank details and expiry date in case of passport and driving license.

Once you save the changes made by clicking the save button, your data will be saved under the “Pending KYC” section.

In case you do not want your details to be updated, you can cancel the KYC process by clicking on the X sign marked against the document before it is verified by the EPFO.

Your details are then verified by the EPFO from the data of the concerned department.

Once the details matches, verified is marked in front of the document.
